Revision of ASAE Standard D384.1: a new approach to estimating manure nutrients and characteristics

Author:

Abstract

A nutritional approach to estimating manure excretions allows producers to evaluate the impact of dietary strategies in their operation; considering nutrients that will be land applied as well as those that may volatilize during storage. A national effort is nearing completion that will take a nutritional or mass-balance approach to estimating excretions by revising the current table values of manure composition and characteristics.
